I know you guys have seen this on Slashdot, (or from the 2005 article)
but I was just wondering how secure can a remote controlled machine-gun
robot be?

I have seen 802.11 with RSA-type keys embedded into the wireless nic,
rotating certs at a pre-determined timeframe, but I am not sure if
that's secure enough for a battlefield. I guess it depends on who you
are fighting. This will make the battlefield more major geek than
sergeant major IMO.
